Hey everyone!

A bit of a different, simple poll today! We plan on creating scenes for many of our Starter Village Series but we want to know what you'd prefer for those? Interior or exterior.

If you were using a shop in a game, would you prefer to show the approach to the shop? Or the interior showing the decorations and shop counters?

Or in a church, would you prefer to to see the full building from the outside? Or a view over the pews looking towards the altar?

The obvious answer too is to do both, and we'd love to! But we want to work on building a variety of packs before revisiting the same map for an additional scene pack.

Completely happy with either, but, in both cases it is CRUCIAL that you have variants without any people / NPCs / commoners in them (ie separate exporter layer or layers). Otherwise, I likely won't be able to use them. In an ideal world, you could break up the inhabitants into 2, 3, or 4 PNG overlays so that they can be commingled over time (or simply hidden/shown in VTT without having to swap scenes or backgrounds which is clunky), or none at all. If baked in, that leads to an explosion of combinations when other variants are factored in.

Except for the pirate tavern, none of our scenes have people in them and we plan to keep it that way. It makes them a lot more useable.

Interior is harder to find, and you've already made great exterior designs, so I think having some interior to transition to would be amazing! Your greengrocer inside view is one of my favorite scenes you've made!
